Learn about the types of construction machines required in construction

Construction works want to execute smoothly, they need support from construction equipment. So what is a construction machine? What types of machines are needed in construction? Let's find out with us in the article below!

What is a construction machine?

Construction machinery is a general concept about machines and equipment that perform the task of assisting people in handling heavy materials or for disassembling and moving heavy objects.

Current construction machines often have large loads and specialize in performing construction items that cannot be done by human power. Therefore, the introduction of construction machines is the highlight that makes the construction of construction projects easier, smoother and saves labor costs.

Types of construction machines needed in construction
The types of construction machines on the market today are extremely diverse with different models and functions to serve the construction work more quickly and accurately. The following are the 6 groups of construction machines most commonly used in Vietnam:

Material production machine group
As the name implies, the group of materials manufacturing machines creates materials for the construction process. However, the group of machineries for producing materials does not directly produce available building materials (cement, lime, ...) but only supports the transformation of materials into suitable forms (building mortar, mixed concrete, etc.) ...) used for construction works.

Accordingly, the group of material production machines is divided into two basic types:

Iron processing machine includes: Iron bending machine, iron cutting, iron straightening, ... supporting iron processing as required to increase the accuracy of the material, thereby shortening the construction time.
Concrete production machine includes:  Mixer, pump, ... has the effect of reinforcing and creating quality and durable finished concrete.
Group of lifting machines
The group of transport machines is used to transport and move equipment and materials used in construction work. Based on the principle of operation, the group of lifting machines is divided into 2 subgroups:

Vertical lifting machines:  Chain hoists, winches, cranes, etc.
Horizontal lifting machines:  Dump trucks, tractors, etc.
Group of earthmoving machines

Currently, the group of earthmoving machines has 3 subgroups:

Excavator:

Crawler excavator:  Used to excavate soil in places with higher terrain than vertical such as mining in open pit mines.
Crawler reverse bucket machine:  Has the opposite principle of operation with the forward bucket machine, it will have the effect of digging soil in places with lower terrain than vertical such as digging canals, trenches, dredging culverts, etc.
Soil compactor:   Compactor, wheel roller, wheel roller, etc.

Land transport machines:  Soil levelers, bulldozers, excavators, etc.

Group of foundation reinforcement machines
The group of foundation reinforcement machines performs the function of tightening the soil layers, making the soil firm and preventing subsidence or cracking of the soil surface. In addition, some types of foundation reinforcement machines are also used to drive piles deep into the ground to transmit loads to the rock layers at a depth of 60 - 70m in the ground.

Foundation reinforcement machines include: Pile press, pile driver, bored pile drilling machine, ...

With the continuous development and improvement, the Hyundai construction machinery brand has gradually affirmed its position through diverse and highly appreciated products such as:  series crawler excavators (Robex 210LC-7, 290LC) -7A, 450LC-7,…) and series of wheel excavators (Robex 140W-7, 170W-7 and 200W-7,…).

Building an image with prestige and quality, with the goal of always prioritizing operator comfort, Hyundai deserves to be the most trusted construction machinery brand in Vietnam today!

Above is general information about the types of construction machines needed in construction that we want to provide you. Hope this information will be useful in helping you equip the necessary construction machines when building
